    I bought this vintage guitar. It has no sticker or a serial number. I see where sticker one was but is gone.How might I determine the year and model ? It is in fact an epiphone from the 50s all original case and all.

    I like it!

    Is it a thinline or full body?

    Would love to play it (or one of its close relatives) and find out whats its all about.
